This is my 2nd purchase of avocado huggers, and I love them.
My first was a set of 2 small huggers from a gift catalog, and I have used them weekly for 4+ years. I only eat half an avocado at a time and these have saved me time, and they seal up the avocado better than foil or plastic wrap. Mine have begun to split at the stem end, however, and I’ve lost one. So I needed more, but was disappointed that I could not buy a set of the small size only. I live in Kansas and there is no possible way I’m going to find avocados as large as the large size, so it will go to waste for me. That’s my reason for 4 stars rather than 5. But clearly, I like them well enough to buy a set of 2, when I can only use 1.

I REALLY wanted to love these. . . Sadly, they now just take up space in my silverware drawer or occasionally get used as a baby toy. When I saw these for the first time, I thought it was a brilliant idea! My now 1 year old LOOOOOVES avocado and eats them everyday, so I knew I had to have them. (By the way, these are cheaper on Uncommon Goods) I paid about $11 for this 2 piece set here on Amazon, which I think is too expensive. But I got them anyway because I was sure they would get used everyday and keep my daughters precious avocados fresh. Again, this a great idea. . . However unless the avocado is the exact size and shape of the food hugger, it just doesn’t work. If it doesn’t fit correctly, the avocado is brown by the time you get back to it. The smaller size can work, IF you have an avocado that is the right size and shape. Still not as good as I had hoped. And the large one has never been used. Not even once. It is enormous. I live in San Diego, and I have yet to find an avocado that large. And I have avocados in the house at all times. . . So, in my opinion, they should do away with the large size and sell 2 regular sizes in the set. . . Also lower the price by several dollars. . .And even then, they wouldn’t get used all the time. These definitely need some work. I’m bummed they didn’t work for me.

This avocado hugger comes in two sizes – small and large. Unfortunately the last 3 avocados I bought are the same size – too large for the small cover and way too small for the large. I ended up squeezing half an avocado into the small one. It was difficult, and a little messy. Bottom line is: I don’t see the point in these huggers. I’m trying to get away from using plastic on my food, and these silicon covers sounded perfect, however the fit is off. They should probably make an additional size, in between the small and the large.
Additionally, these are not returnable, so I can’t really recommend purchasing them.
Update: When I went to use the other half of the avocado the next morning, the hugger had slidden off, so what’s the point?! I checked back with the description, and they are returnable, so I ended up sending them back. Waste of tine and money.

Pros:
1) well made
2) easy to clean
3) perfect size for avocado and seed
4) fits perfectly on small/med size avocado but lengthwise
5) keeps avocado FRESH! Surprised at minimal browning!!
Cons:
1) I cut my avocados crosswise not lengthwise so this didn’t work too well
2) most avocados I buy in bulk at Costco are not large so the bigger cover in this set is useless to me

Well, I wasn’t so sure about this little thing, so I was very happy to see that it works quite well! The one photo with a bit of brown probably had more to do with the avocado being not as fresh as in the second photo. Most times, the seed part doesn’t fit snugly into the holder and I was worried about the trapped air in there, so I set it on the bubble part in the fridge to help push the air out…works nicely! Someone said it was a bit hard to fit the avocado half into the holder and, yes, this is true, so I used the knife (carefully), slipping it into the holder, running it around the avocado until it’s all enclosed, easy peasy. I like this because it saves me from having to put yet another piece of plastic wrap into the trash, you know, “saving the earth”!!

Gave this to someone who is an incredible cook and he couldn’t find one so I bought this and it works perfect

Great idea but does not work. Leaves to much space and air gets to the avocado so it still turns brown

I purchased this because I make keto meal replacement shakes, and the recipe only requires half of an avocado. Not to mention I eat a lot of avocado halves as sides, but I usually end up having to toss the uneaten half. Anyone who knows avocados knows the moment you cut an avocado, it seems like you’ve got minutes to get it eaten before it goes bad. Okay, that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but you avocado lovers know what I mean. The only thing I can think of that goes bad nearly as quickly as avocados are bananas, so at best I was hoping to maybe buy my avocado half about 24 hours in the refrigerator, and even then I still expected to have the taste already be a bit off. I must say, I’ve been pleasantly surprised that I peel this thing off the avocado half the next day, and it’s still perfectly tasty. HOWEVER, the last time I used this thing was about five days ago, and I forgot that I had it in the refrigerator with half an avocado in it. Oh no! I just knew I was going to find a gross rotting avocado half that I’d have to throw out, so I decided document just how rottedit would be after five days. WOW! Just look at that picture. That’s after being in my refrigerator for five solid days. Now, I will admit this wasn’t a perfectly soft ripe avocado when I put it in there. It was most certainly ripe enough to eat sliced up, or just spooned right out of the skin, but just not soft enough that you’d be mashing it up for guacamole. Had it been guacamole soft, I doubt it would look quite this good, but no doubt it would have still lasted a couple of days in the fridge. But WOW! To get five whole days out of a half an avocado and it still be perfectly tasty… that’s pretty amazing. Plus it’s made of silicone, so it’s very easy to clean, and dishwasher safe, if you happen swing that way. The ONLY downside to this little wonder is it can be a tad tricky to get seated properly on to an avocado half; especially if the avocado is fully ripe and soft. However, with a bit of practice it does gets easier once you get your technique down. I’d highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys avocados on the regular.

These are great and work as expected, but only the small size fits. The large size was made for gigantic avocados, I have never seen one that size in my life

I got this for my daughter who is a culinary student and her comment was, “I’ve been wanting one of these forever.” So, I guess it was a hit!
